and which one is the best talent?
Why would you care what somebody says?
Loving the #talentdiversity nice to see havoc so many #meaningfulchoices
I'd rather not have meaningful choices if it means losing Demonic and First Blood in the rotation.
I'd rather not go back to chaos strike spam in between demon's bite and eyebeam every 30 seconds with a 4 min cd meta.
I want my constant meta transformations, and I want blade dance in the rotation to at least have a 3 button spec.
People call DH a brain dead class because even a green parser who doesnt understand the basics can out dps most other classes in most situations.
Don't care about raids on DH, but it's such a meme class. With even bad gear you can easily outdps other people in M+.
Btw I liked Demon Blades in Legion.
I've been advocating those baselines since forever, but seeing as Blizzard are a bunch of negligent amoebas who manage to turn a profit on minimum effort possible via a playerbase that laps up their crap, including BfA, I don't have any hopes of true baselining of essential gameplay defining talents across the classes.
Because that would mean they would have to come up with new talents, and if you've been paying attention they're so lazy about that to the point of bringing in previous PvP talents to PvE because they can't be bothered to make new ones.
Demon blades is just one part of what makes DH brain-dead. Their AoE spender is also their best ST ability which is also a defensive ability. Every minute in PvP they can essentially become immune to melee classes while 100-0ing anyone with one button unless there's LoS nearby. Sustaining on a DH requires no thought; it's all passive. Their DPS CD also makes them immune to everything during the leap. With felblade they have a gapcloser baked into their dps rotation.
This class should've never been released in the state that it was.

With that logic the "tanky" Havoc Demon Hunter spec would not even qualify as a DPS, because it has similar heal and mitigation as the tank specs.
If you can't horribly fail at a class/spec (DH), because your damage abilitys keep you passive alive or passivly counter in PvP, while doing in most patches the highest burst damage in the game - yes with conditions as these, players might see this class a brain dead.
Nobody is forcing you to play such a class/spec, you can simply play anything else. You can choose in many games EASY and complete the game, but you don't have to, you can also choose MEDIUM, HARD, whatever.
The DH class is WoW's answer to difficulty modes, to give noobs something to start with. If you like the class theme, you better make your peace with the noob factor.

Demon Blades should be baked into Havoc's skill list.
I hate playing DH's, but i dont Care...if people wanna play a braindeadspec go ahead, whatever flows your boat! I do agree that DH's do way too much dmg for the amount of effort that goes into the spec. 2 buttons, couple cd's and that's it, topping the meters, i think that's Just idiotic. Just my opinion
It's not a two button spec, though, however brainless it might be compared to whatever other class you can name (in which you'd memorize the rotation). If DH's had better talents, they'd probably be the most played class because of double jumps, glide, etc.

I think the problem was basing the class around a builder that doesn't do much. If people wanted that they could just play rogue.
